    Questions after a very long Neo hiatus

    Hi all! I had a couple of random Neo-related questions after returning from a 7+ year hiatus

    1. Since most games are flash based and haven't been converted (or so it seems), I'd guess that means things like score sending are moot and that current monthly high scores on those pages are outdated?
    2. If you received and complete a Fountain Faerie quest, how long do you have to decide what to paint your pet upon completion? Is it immediate? Or would I have time to go buy a transfiguration potion, change my pet species, and then color it via the FF?

    Oh - and hope everyone's been having a great weekend!

    I can answer 2) - The Fountain Faerie Quest (FFQ) will sit indefinitely Take as long as you like. If you happen to get another FFQ, just make sure you use the first one before completing the second one, since they do not stack.

    And hope you're having a good weekend too! Lost an hour of sleep but what can you do

    I've had a FFQ sitting around for the last year after completing it, I just haven't used the fountain to paint one of my pets yet.

    Not sure about the flash situation tho, I haven't been able to use parts of the website due to flash no longer being supported. I can't even use the explore page.

    About that first question. There are workarounds to get Flash to work still (I used this guide: (you need an account to see links) ), and score sending (or at least Joe's Majin program that I'm aware of) still works like a charm. There are less people who send high scores (you can notice this the first few days of the month when there are many blank spaces in the top100 of a game) but there are still enough that get high scores similar to the ones before Flash ended.

    Awesome! That's great to know! Do you know if there's any increased risks with bans for using score sending? Since flash technically doesn't work anymore, I'm surprised TNT believes users can still play and send scores legitly? :o

    None at all. And they specifically said they're leaving the Flash games up for anyone that can still find an older browser which can run the games. So it's very believable people are still playing the games and sending scores legitimately.
